"I am very proud and honored to receive this prestigious award on behalf of INDEX:," said Kigge Hvid, in accepting the award Friday night in Hong Kong. "Over the past seven years, the relatively small and very flexible INDEX: team has worked hard to put an international focus on the necessity to unfold the potential of design to improve people's lives substantially - reflecting Denmark's brand as the natural cradle of such a responsible approach." Design Leadership Award was inaugurated in 2004 and is not necessarily given each year. It is conferred only when the Judging Panel - a blue-ribbon group of design professionals, design promoters and design academics from many parts of the world - determines that it has a candidate worthy of nomination and endorsement. design directory INDEX: > Design Organizations added by Levent OZLER |

 American Package Design AwardsGraphic Design USA invites you to join the thousands of creative professionals who have been part of its national competitions over four decades.The goal is to spotlight areas of growth and opportunity for graphic designers, recognize the best work being done, and emphasize the value of design to business and society. The reason is simple but profound: marketers are challenged as never before to convey their message and promote their brand in an era of fragmented audiences, global competition and tight budgets. Package design and its related disciplines are increasingly the difference makers in the purchasing decision. This competition celebrates well-designed graphics, of course, but more importantly the power of design to advance the brand and forge an emotional link with the buyer at the moment of truth. competition (ended) current design competitions more info www.gdu...
